Fodor's Expert Review W Beijing Chang'an
2 Jianguuomen Nan Dajie, Beijing, Beijing, 100022, China
True to form, the sassy Starwood brand W has tech-laden guestrooms (and corner rooms here have great city views), comfy beds, pillow menus, and free snacks. The Yen restaurant serves contemporary takes on Cantonese and northern Chinese delicacies. The hotel is close to Beijing Railway Station, and it’s just a few subway stops west to Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City.
PROS
- hip design
- rooms loaded with creature comforts
- excellent dining
CONS
- a little farther out than the Wangfujing hotels
- feels a bit corporate
- area is full of traffic
